    Unsure what that quote is supposed to imply. Either she does associate herself with the movement or she does not. I don’t know the person or follow any of their social stuff. So if she does not, in fact, self associate with that group than I misremembered and I’m wrong. If she does than she is.

      Feminism is very clearly defined in what it is and does. Posting divisive man hating rage bait is not part of it. Just calling yourself something does not make yourself something.

        Sure does, but as far as I’m aware, subscription to the ideology is the only bar to entry. Just because someone uses distasteful methods does not mean they do not subscribe to the ideology. So in this case, I would argue that stating it does make it.

          What are you talking about? Feminism is about equality. How does this method achieve equality?

            That’s a good question for the person who we’re talking about. I can’t speak on behalf of their reasoning but they seem to feel justified in it, somehow.
